Zhao Ling has lived in the palace since he was a child, and he almost knows the road in the palace very well, in other words, even if a pair of eyes are blindfolded, he can find a way out of the palace.

However, he never thought that one day, under the arrangement and protection of others, he would escape the supervision of the Royal Forest Army and quietly sneak out of the palace.

After walking out of Changxin Palace with all his strength, Zhao Ling looked back at the palace that was immersed in the night, and his father's cold appearance when he looked at him appeared in front of him; For some reason, he was always a little restless tonight, and this feeling was completely different from the feeling he felt after knowing that Chu He had escaped from prison in trouble.

It was as if his whole heart had been lifted high, which made him panic, and he always felt that something more unexpected was about to happen.

The young general of the Imperial Forest Army, who was arranged by Xiao Gang to protect Zhao Ling, saw that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was standing in place after leaving Changxin Palace, but he was standing in place and looking at the palace that had locked him up and down for a whole day, and thought that he was observing the defense of Changxin Palace, so he walked up and said: "Your Highness, my subordinates have taken a careful look before coming, and the entire palace is now the most tightly guarded Imperial Forest Army of Changxin Palace, as long as we leave the scope of Changxin Palace, it is not a big problem to get out of the palace." ”

Another young general of the Imperial Forest Army also stood up and said: "Yes, Your Highness, please rest assured, at this time, there is a great commander staying in the Changxin Palace instead of you, and I think we can delay for Your Highness for a while, and when the Royal Forest Army finds out what is wrong, we will all be out of the palace." ”

Listening to the words of the young generals of the Imperial Forest Army, Zhao Ling suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, squinted his eyes, and said, "It seems that my father has really spent a lot of thought in order to put His Royal Highness under house arrest here; He sent people to surround King Ling's mansion, and he asked people to see His Royal Highness well, in the eyes of his father, my son really made him dare not rest assured. ”

Hearing this, the young generals of the Royal Forest Army did not dare to answer, so they could only hang their heads and act as deaf and dumb; You must know that although His Royal Highness the Prince's words just now sounded calm, but there was resentment towards the Son of Heaven in it, as a son, he might be able to talk about his own Laozi like this, but this is not something that a courtier like them can say casually.

Before leaving, Zhao Ling took a deep look at Changxin Palace; He told himself that he must firmly remember tonight, and remember the biggest heel he had planted in his life in the hands of his biological father.

"Let's leave the palace."

With an order, Zhao Ling and the four young generals quickly moved towards the palace gate by taking advantage of the night.

However, what Zhao Ling didn't know was that when he thought he had left the palace with all his might and hurried back to King Ling's mansion, Emperor Zhaohe, who was sitting on the dragon bed in Tai'an Palace, showed a well-planned smile with a cough.

"This son of mine is really an infatuated child, almost exactly the same as I was back then, it is simply a typical example of not hitting the south wall and not looking back."

Hearing Emperor Zhaohe's words, Song Yang stepped up and hugged his fists and said: "Your Majesty, your seemingly tight and loose approach may be able to hide from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but may not be able to hide it from him for the rest of his life; In the eyes of his subordinates, His Royal Highness is wise, and the reason why he lost his weight at this time and did not see through your plan was because he cared about the crown princess; But when he calms down, thinks about it carefully, and finds out that all this is your handiwork, he may resent you. ”

Speaking of this, Song Yang took a step forward and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, why don't you tell the truth to Your Highness?" Let him know that you are doing this for him, and if His Highness knows the truth, he may understand you and agree with you. ”

After Emperor Showa heard Song Yang's words, he only briefly hooked a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Ling'er's character, I know a little bit, I want to completely hand over the entire Great Wei into his hands, only I can succeed in this matter, he, no!" ”

"You can also see how heavy the position of the girl of the Chu family is in his heart, Chu Yi has been holding heavy troops all these years, I believe that he will not betray me and betray Great Wei, but I don't believe that he will simply hand over the military power in his hands; The greatest feeling I have gained from sitting on this throne over the years is not the satisfaction of dominating the world, but the greed and desire of too many people; When people are poor and white, three meals and food will be their greatest wish, but when they get more, their desire will become more and more inflated. If I simply issued a holy decree to Qingzhou asking Chu Yi to hand over the military power, would he have no change? I don't believe him in this regard. ”

Emperor Showa raised his head and let out a long breath, and continued: "In Chu Yi's life, the best achievement is to stop the iron cavalry of Beimeng outside the Beibi Mountain for me and the people of Great Wei, so that no one dares to bully Great Wei in these decades; At the same time, he also has one more excellent thing, that is, he has given birth to a stunning daughter who can fascinate my best son. Letting Chu Yi's daughter become Ling Er's wife is the most negligent thing I have done in my life, if I had known that one day this female doll would become a stumbling block for Ling Er, I would never have given the girl of the Chu family to Ling Er as a concubine in the first place. ”

"Ling'er values that girl, and she is very affectionate, if that girl runs to Ling'er to cry for her father and brother, Ling'er may really let Qingzhou go for her; As a dignified emperor, but he does not have the most powerful fighting army in his hands, what difference does it make if he is subject to others? Over the years, I have suffered from inner torment because of the Jiang family, but at the same time, I have never been at ease with Qingzhou. The father and son of the Chu family are in charge of the army, and the matter of high merit has spread throughout the Great Wei; In Qingzhou, tens of thousands of people probably only know the Marquis of Jingbei, not the Emperor of Great Wei. In my lifetime, I must not allow such a thing to continue, let alone keep a woman who can influence my son's thoughts and prevent my son from achieving great things. So, I, the wicked man, will do it sooner or later, but now I have planned a little bit earlier. ”

When Song Yang heard Emperor Showa say this, he lowered his eyes with empathy, and his tone was slightly bitter: "But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is now obsessed with the love of children, if he knows the whole truth of the matter, he may not be grateful to the emperor, but will make the relationship between father and son suspicious." The subordinates think that the emperor has done so much, and in the end he will suffer the resentment of the prince, which is really unfair to the emperor. ”

Listening to Song Yang's words for himself, Emperor Showa drew a smile on the corner of his mouth, if he hadn't heard it with his own ears, he really didn't expect that the deputy commander he had brought up would also say naïve words.

"In this world, there is no fairness. If you look at things from my point of view, you will feel that I have endured a lot of grievances and misinterpretations from others for the sake of the prince, but if you stand from the perspective of the Chu family, you will have another feeling, thinking that I am ruthless and ruthless, and I am really not the work of an upright and honest emperor. ”

Emperor Showa picked up the handkerchief at hand, gently wiped the corners of his mouth, his cloudy eyes regained transparency and clarity in an instant at this moment, and the wisdom and edge of the emperor under his eyes were exposed at this time: "Fortunately, I have never thought about being a prosperous emperor, what does it mean to be an emperor who has been famous for the ages, if I can personally cultivate an outstanding and excellent son of heaven, the sense of achievement will only be stronger." I don't need the prince's understanding and understanding, as long as the prince knows, from the moment he becomes the prince, his children's affection and his affection will become worthless in front of his family and the country; As an emperor, the first lesson to learn is how to make yourself cold and ruthless. ”

Although Song Yang was a military general, his eyes burst out with a strong sense of surrender when he saw such a Showa Emperor; His submission did not come from the awe of the majestic imperial power, but he was genuinely attracted by the charisma of Emperor Showa's personality, and regarded the old man in front of him, who was already in his twilight years, as the only god in his heart.

Emperor Showa's eyes were soon covered with turbidity, although with the decay of his body, he even slowed down his mobility, but he shrewdly captured the deep admiration and indulgence in Song Yang's eyes.

In the first place, why did he choose to arrange Song Yang into the Imperial Forest Army, this is the answer.

Because he knew very well that although Xiao Gang was raised by him, no matter how loyal the wolf dog was, there were times when he was lost, not to mention, he believed that his son also had a charm that people followed closely, and although Xiao Gang was loyal to him, he was not as completely obedient to him as an obsessive believer; That child, many times, has his own opinions, such a person, once he meets a master who can really make him surrender, his firm heart will swing and hesitate.

Therefore, when watching Xiao Gang and Ling Er get in contact with Ling Er for longer and longer, Emperor Showa quietly kept this hand for himself; Hide it from Xiao Gang, hide it from Fusheng, except for yourself and hide it from all the people in the world.

Although Song Yang's ability is not as good as Xiao Gang, he is an excellent believer; almost treats his commands as the only followers in life; Therefore, in this world, in addition to believing in himself, the next person to believe in himself is Song Yang.

Fortunately, he kept this hand, otherwise, it would not be easy for him to win this battle.

Emperor Showa picked up the handkerchief again and gently wiped the corners of his mouth, looking at the cloudy liquid sticking to the bright yellow handkerchief, Emperor Showa gently clenched his somewhat swollen fingers, and then said to Song Yang: "The prince must have left the palace at this time, you can see it, there will be a good show soon; Besides, I ordered to go down, and when the prince entered the palace again, there was no need to stop him, and he was directly allowed to come to see me. ”

Song Yang looked at Emperor Showa worriedly: "Your Majesty, if the crown prince enters the palace again, I'm afraid it will be unfavorable to the emperor, do you want to arrange it?" ”

Emperor Showa laughed twice and looked at Song Yang, with a joke in his tone: "What? Are you really worried that stupid boy will kill the king? Don't worry, little wolf cub I raised, I know what kind of temperament he is, he will be angry, but he will never hurt me; If you're interested, you can stay here and wait, because soon, the show will be playing out before our eyes. ”
